Suppose you were applying for a job in a community mental health center. How would you respond to these questions during the interview: (1) Many of our clients represent a range of diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds; to what degree do you think you will be able to work with them? (2) How would you explain your own acculturation process? (e.g., your own process of being a product of your culture; how the culture to which you belong affects your thinking, etc.). How will this help or hinder you in working with our clientele? (3) What will be your biggest challenge in forming trusting relationships with clients who are culturally different from you?
